Restore shelved files from a pending change into a workspace.
p4 [g-opts] unshelve -s shelvedchange [-f -n] [-c change] [-b branch | -S stream [-P stream]] [file ...]
The p4 unshelve command retrieves files that are
shelved in a pending changelist into a pending changelist on the invoking
user’s workspace. Access to shelved files from a pending changelist is
controlled by the user’s permissions on the files.
In addition to the files being unshelved, p4
unshelve also unshelves any open stream specification. For
more information on open stream specifications, see p4 stream.
You can limit the files to be unshelved by specifying a file pattern.
Unshelving copies the shelved files into the user’s workspace as they existed when they were shelved. (For example, a file open for edit when shelved will also be open for edit in the unshelving user’s workspace.)
You may unshelve a promoted shelf into open files and branches on a server from where the shelf did not originate.
As a best practice, use the -f option to unshelve a shelf
that has added files.
p4 obliterate myfile does not obliterate a shelve
of the file (archive or metadata). When you attempt to unshelve a file
that has been obliterated, you will get an error. To recover the
content of that file, print the file. To get rid of the shelve, delete
the shelf.

Specifies a branch spec through which the shelved files will be mapped prior to unshelving. This option enables you to shelve files in one branch and unshelve them in another. |
|
|
Specify a changelist number in the user’s workspace into which
the files are to be unshelved. By default, |

Force the overwriting of writable (but unopened) files during the unshelve operation. |

Preview the results of the unshelve operation without actually restoring the files to your workspace. |

Unshelve to the specified parent stream. Overrides the parent defined in the source stream specification. |
|
|
Specify the pending changelist number that contains the originally-shelved files. |

unresolved, and you must run p4
resolve to resolve the differences between the
shelved file and the workspace file before submitting or reshelving the
file.)|
